Founded in Florence in 1993, and today with Legal and Operational Headquarter in Scandicci (Florence), ELDES is a market leader for Radar Solutions in the Meteorology and Defence sectors. Two business lines guided by the same evolutionary approach and the same technological skills base. These common roots of expertise have made it possible to develop Radar technologies of Excellence, starting from the basic components to arrive at complete solutions under its own Brand. ELDES has in fact chosen to invest in the highly specialized creation of complete products and latest generation technologies, innovating the path with its own ideas and always taking into consideration the needs expressed by the market. The offer translates into solutions that can predict and prevent, helping to understand, validate, to make the right decisions at the right time. Weather Radar and Defence Radar Simulators are thus created to observe and analyse operational scenarios, whatever their context of use. A market-oriented and above all customer-oriented approach, where the creation and updating of products arise from need. In the Defence Sector, ELDES has applied its know-how to create innovative Programmable and Hardware-in-the-Loop (HWIL) Simulation Solutions for the Assessment of Electronic Warfare (EW) and Radar systems. ELDES was a forerunner in the development of X-Band Weather Radar, conceived as a compact and versatile solution, to satisfy the need of forecasting-prevention in an increasingly changing and unpredictable climate context. The Company strategy is to create long-term relationships with Customers, offering them not only products, but also dedicated professional support. ELDES solutions are present in the world today with over 700 installations and strategic components supplied.
